lool , how would u make 3D on non 3D device :confused: simple impossible m8

And that home screens scrolling, that was implemented loong time ago in MIUI RoMs ( at least )maybe some other launchers can do that too. But I have a MIUI RoM for a while and all I can say I would not change for any other style. Well maybe if someone offer me a brand new phone for free with other style Android :D But still would change it back to MIUI for a while :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hrockh:
It's good advertisement made by HTC. Unfortunately the effects of the 3D would not be that nice and crisply clear.

If you read this

http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/22/htc-evo-3d-first-hands-on/

you will discover that the 3D effect only work when the phone is facing you.. sad isn't?? :D

won't work on the HD2 has the 3D effects requires a special screen specially designed for it. The screen on that phone has got also an higher resolution [qHD]

I mean the EVO 3D is a truly piece of art, so if it's available in your country go for it! I think it's the real successor to the King HD2.

however you can get the interface sense 2.1 without 3D effect on the HD2 easily.. just have a look to the NAND development

hope this helps

and remember it's not everything that shines is gold :D

Hello All,

I fear I may have bricked my phone.

After installing the G2-Fast Kernel, my phone constantly resets itself to the HTC logo screen, goes black as if to load the OS, then resets itself again.

Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to boot into recovery? I can't seem to find any info on how to do this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Congrats :D Were you using a sense rom or anything? :p
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soloist80:
Macarony,

No Sense ROM. I was just running a the stock ROM and I had it OC'd to 1.4ghz, but I decided I wanted to give the 1.9ghz a shot, but it just made my phone power cycle incessantly.

I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to all this flashing/modding/rooting/romming, so I wasn't 100% as to what I was doing :P

Do you have any suggestions in terms of which custom ROMs I might want to install?

Hi guys, it's me again, asking help from the android community...

I've so far been playing with ROM MANAGER, downloading Cyanogen etc, last night I download the nightly #29 ... and I like it very much!! :)

But the problem is now, I've lost ROOT permission ... and so I went download Visionary+ r14 to root again.. but this time.. when I click on temproot it just flashes on my screen saying ''please wait'' etc...

goes on few times with no luck... Arggggg.:eek:... don't know what happened..

info:

Model Number: Desire HD

Android Version: 2.3.3

Baseband version: 12. 28b. 60. 140eP_26. 03.02 .26_M

Can someone please point me in the right direction.. :confused: ??????

can you boot into CWM? Flash another ROM.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menace1234:
CWM? .. oh clockworkmod, yes, i can reboot to it.. ..so I thought I would do a restore.. but .. when I select a restore point its says "THIS CAN NOT BE DONE" follow by a series of "-no" and .. second last option saying "-yes restore"

... sigh.... :(

I guess it's time to bring the hammer out and play builder and smash the damn thing! ..

.. can you offer any advise.... ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
Just get another ROM, put it into your SD, do a full wipe and flash that ROM. Root is only a permission in the ROM itself, a device itself cannot actually be "rooted", so flashing a bugfree ROM will fix your problem.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menace1234:
lol, I went to rom manager download nightly #30 .. and did manual update through CWM and success I have root permission back!! lovely.. Thanks everyone!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BillTheCat:
Can someone help me understand the difference between a Nandroid backup and using Titanium Backup? Is it similar to the difference between image-based backup vs. file/application based backup? Under what circumstances would one be better than the other?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OlafTheOx:
Your simile is spot on. Nandroid backup is used to completely restore a system with all apps and data.

Titanium Backup is used to restore/reinstall apps and data without changing your system. It's really handy if you get brave and decide to flash a new ROM on your phone. TiBu can put all your previously installed apps into place very quickly.

If you don't like the new ROM, just restore your old system from the Nandroid backup.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BillTheCat:
Ok, so help me think this through.

I've already Rooted/S-off/flashed a ROM on my phone. So presuming that the ROM image I download via CWM or XDA is on my card anyway, and I have TiBu (I have the paid version) that I can use to selectively restore apps, settings and data, would not Nandroid be redundant in this case?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OlafTheOx:
The point of a nandriod backup is to easily go back to a working setup without having to spend time installing apps and tweaking all the numerous settings to your liking. 5 minutes to restore a nandroid backup vs. 2 - 4 hours of installing & tweaking.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] technoplunk:
Nandroid is actually part of Clockwork Recovery. If you reboot to recovery mode you can make and restore backups from there.

As you say your on a custom ROM I assume Clockwork Recovery/CWM/ROM Manager was installed as part of the process.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] technoplunk:
There is a good overview of ClockworkMod Recovery at http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-clockworkmod-recovery-and-how-to-use-it-on-android-complete-guide/#features
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jkolner:
I was just wondering about the same thing, so thanks for the thread.

Making a Nandroid backup right now ;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OlafTheOx:
BTW, nandroid backups are stored on your SD card. You can free up space by either deleting or moving them to storage off the phone. Just keep a backup of your preferred restoration ROM on the SD card. Also, at the very least, it's a good idea to save a backup of the original manufacturer's ROM somewhere.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alain_HTC:
thanks for the link.

One issue though... it says ClockWorkMod requires ROOT access to create a backup rom image, which on my phone (ATT Aria with HBOOT 1.02) require to have S-OFF first with alpharev, yet most instructions tell you to create a nandroid backup first (which makes sense in case something goes wrong)...

Am I missing something ? you can't create a back, and you take risk doing S-OFF+Root to get there.

I want to remove unwanted ATT crapware, and install non market apps, but I need root access for all this. right ?

Is there another way to import your sim-contacts on the N1, because the normal way ( contacts, import/export, import from SIM ) doesn't work. I'm not planning to copy all my contacts from my iphone to my N1. Is there a way?

Thanks a lot.

[G Tablet General] TeamSpeed:
Obviously you can see that there is a woot special today on the gtablet, simply based on all the threads that are redundantly getting posted.

However here is the downstream effect. There are many purchasers that are all being pointed to Droidpirate or XDA, and several links being added to the discussions, etc.

Once the tablets all come in, obviously there will be a percentage of users that just won't be happy with the tablet (thus ebay will be flooded with them, as will the XDA forum), but those willing to hack will join up.

Membership and post counts will most likely increase dramatically. :)

Some very funny comments if you have time to read the questions and comments by both Gtablet fans, Xoom fans, Nook fans, and even IPad fans!

[G Tablet General] g0t0:
I've had mine for a few weeks and love it! (w/ VEGan 5.1.1 of COURSE). I also fell prey to the IPAD experience and bought the IPAD2. As soon I I turned it on I knew I F'd up. while I love the IPAD for its brain dead ease of use, I dont need the cameras. SOOO, I'm going to sell it and get the 1st gen IPAD and some cash to buy ANOTHER G-Tab. I still can't believe it's so cheap for a Tegra 2, Alternative for Honeycomb (fingers crossed).

I too ordered up a gtablet today from woot. I've been keeping an eye out for the best price and today was the day...been contemplating on getting one for a few months.

I've also been lurking the gtablet forums here on XDA to get an idea of what kind dev support there was for it and was surprised when I first start following this device. I joined not to long for some Droid X support and now I can't wait till the gtablet arrives.

damn you XDA and Slickdeals...now i am $285 short and have effectively decided between a refurb ipad 1 and a New G-TAB. I have plenty of android phones like My touch 4g, G2, and EVO but I have been wanting a tablet for a while. This is my first tablet and honestly thought I would buy an ipad due to build quality and resale. First thing I will do it root and load a new rom but it might take couple weeks since i shipped it to a relative due to stupid tax where I live. I will still end up picking up a used ipad 16gb for under $300 from Craigslist and compare the difference between the 2 and end up giving the ipad to wifey.

Been GTABBIN it since about january, it was this forum that convinced me to pick one up.

As with others, I joined the revolution via Woot today. Don't want to wait for it but I'll have to try. Currently am a user of the Galaxy Tab, and generally like the idea of the tablet, but can't justify the high costs (This device was purchased by work)

The G Tablet is pretty much what Ia m looking for, a device that cuts out the stupid stuff, I am not going to use it to take pictures, I don't want it tied to, or even have the capability to be on a carrier, etc.

[G Tablet General] TeamSpeed:
Very cool, good to see new folks here! The first round of Gtablet factory ROMs were really horrid. It was no wonder so many folks returned their units to Staples, Sears, etc. The touchscreen calibration was off (easy fix, and there is now an app for that actually here on XDA), and Viewsonic had their own version of a home page that some liked and most hated. Since then, though, they have been paying attention to XDA, and actually have accounts here now, and the last 2 updates have been quite a bit more positive.

If either the 3389 or 3588 versions were on the tablets last Fall, there would have been a bigger splash, I think. Add the gapps add-on to get market, flash, etc. and the tablet screams.

I bought a 2nd one myself from woot, I think my wife's acer netbook is going to have a new home by this summer. This one will have Vegan though. I am running the viewsonic OE rom, along with the gapps add-on, which I think, is very close to TNT-lite.

If you want to know how to update roms manually (not using clockworkmods), see the sticky at the top, it should help explain the mechanics of changing roms or adding updates via the update.zip method.

[G Tablet General] nunjabusiness:
I am wondering just where in the hell did they find this many NEW units to sell? Unless they are really returns that were tested for problems and declared "new" again. ;)

After all, we know that many many people returned them within hours of purchase because of TapnTap being so underwhelming.

Also, I found it funny that so many people were asking about rooting, when the name of the site they are at comes from a bastardization of the word.

Anybody else old enough to remember hearing "I got woot!" when someone gained root access on a system?

BTW, I saw roebeet over there (jokingly) lamenting all the new users he (and the other devs) will have to support now.:D
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I wasn't joking. :eek:

Here's a really scary thought (you're going to love this). They are advertising Flash OOTB, as well as the Kindle app. Now, we all know that our friends at Viewsonic don't have a Flash firmware yet.

Except the 3991 UAT ROM.

What if they decided to image that ROM to get Flash on there quickly? Honestly, I don't even want to think about it...... yikes!
